How to stop a hacked account in SM?

I'm fairly new to SmarterMail (using mDaemon for many years).
I found an account got hacked and I have two questions.
1) The sender was sending from an account that did not exist on the local server. Doesn't SM check to make sure it's a valid account before accepting the email?
2) The sender was connecting from host  mail.viacompinc.com (EHLO string). Doesn't SM check to see if that's valid? Because mail.viacompinc.com resolves to the SM server... so it should know right away that's false.
Here's snip from log:
